Hello there,

Received an email stating the same.

It means they’re getting everything together and will submit it to the Minister for approval.

They’re back from their summer recess and can thus get things moving. Sounds like a ceremony soon enough.

Cheers xx

The Dáil is resuming this evening. We should hear more about citizenship soon enough. :) Apologies - it was meant to resume this evening but is adjourned until further notice. Cabinet need to isolate for a week or so. Pretty sure we’d hear about the report of the e-ceremonies. As the department has...

The Dáil is resuming this evening. We should hear more about citizenship soon enough.

Completely agree. There were some 64 people working in the citizenship department going through thousands of applications. Let’s not forget annual leave, sick leave, and two who take calls every Tues & Thurs. Honestly not easy for them. In a wee bit of a conundrum here: I had to travel as a grandpar...

Last post from kalyna and Captainf makes me hopeful suggest that they will announce smth within months. I have noticed there is Citizenship fee on online portal with ability to upload passport photo and specify certificate from ceremony. https://i.ibb.co/5W531Dh/Ceremony1.jpg That’s fantastic news!...

The pilot virtual Citizenship Ceremony that took place on 10 July 2020, involved 21 applicants. A review of the pilot is underway and consideration of that review is now in its final stages. A critical consideration is the protection of the welfare and safety of the participants and the general pub...

We have to stand united.mocking each other wont work just like in one of the last post, 2 of my indian fellows tried to mock me asking have you approached your TD and etc. If you are starting a petition can you share the link over here too and we can all sign the petition. Hi Christina, If you don’...

I vaguely remember a gentleman posting approx 2 wks back about how he got his solicitor to to send in a letter re a judicial decision. The department wrote back requesting for approx 5 weeks for a decision. Might hear something at the end of this month or next month. Makes me wonder if they’re plann...

when you say "advanced stage" what stage is that? 2nd where you received a letter saying they are verifying good character? or have you gotten a letter requesting the citizenship fee? and when did you get the first notification of the current advanced stage you are in now? If I can be incredibly ho...

I wonder if everyone is still getting the funny and stupid ''continues to be processed'' emails or has anyone got any indication that their application is on advanced stage or waiting to be submitted to the Minister etc? Anything different? Hi there, My application has been on ‘advanced stage’ for ...

There's a new announcement on the website: The Department of Justice and Equality wishes to advise that due to the current Covid-19 Pandemic the citizenship ceremonies scheduled for Friday 3rd July 2020 at the Killarney Convention Centre in Killarney, Co. Kerry are postponed. ISD officials are curr...

Completely double that. The wait can be frustrating and disproportional but I don’t understand why people assume that citizenship is a right vs a privilege. It all stems from the egoistic sense of entitlement that serves no one and is toxic. Completely agree re the spread of false info and fake news...

Emailed them re ctizenship ceremony in July and expiring GNIB in July. Just received a response which quite clearly states that they are not fully operational and working remotely. Dear X, Thank you for your email. Please note that as a result of the current Government Restrictions in place in relat...

The truth is this is blatant racis.m. It’s easy to come up with a random number and slander a whole nation without backing up your argument. You are providing subjective and incorrect information, and you are fabricating arguments as if they were provided by immigration officers. +1. Could the mod ...

Nope.
They’re currently in lockdown too. All services have been suspended.

The July ceremony is still in the works for now and will depend on the covid situation and pu...

Would be so much better (in terms of coping with uncertainty) if they posted citizenship certificate in the same way they do for children applications.Maybe for limited period until we are back to normal life. They might do it closer to the date, otherwise alternative is to postpone it for the year...

The Minister merely applies what is constituted by law.
It is therefore the law that needs to change.

Hello,

Just looking at the annual leave alone, you don’t have enough reckonable residence as you’ve been out of the State for more than 42 days (6 weeks x 7 days) a year (esp years 3 & 4) bar the last.

- B

His wife? If you look at the letter, it is addressed to a ‘Miss X’.. ‘Dear Miss X’ not ‘Mrs X’. They probably do not consider her to be legally married to him/ recognise the marriage. Question is why?! Does he have other wives (apologies for asking- purely non-judgemental) or was he married before? ...

Go to your nearest GNIB office and get it amended. You might get a stamp on it stating ‘cancelled without prejudice’ and they’ll re-stamp it and write in the correct date.

You should be fine with the naturalisation certificate.
If you live in Dublin, you can go to the GNIB office and join the que where you merely ask questions (as per a friend of mine who went there to get something sorted) and request for a stamp 6.

Congrats K - I must admit your entries here were quite reminiscent of journal entries and made me smile. :) Glad you’re making it! CaptainF- Whoa! Good going! Congrats! Hopefully you’ll make it to this ceremony. :) Congrats to everyone else who got approved and will make it to the March ceremonies! ...

Congrats to everyone who has been approved thus far! I note that invitations are currently being issued. Out of curiosity, are any approvals being issued too?

I couldn’t get through to the helpline today and haven’t had any email replies.

Thank you.
